HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is generally recommended that you do not have intercourse within 7 days after treatment so you may both need re treatment if it was unprotected since the medication would not have enough time to take an effect.
If re treatment is necessary , then your partner would also need to speak to his doctor about medication.
I hope this helps
